On installing PlatformIO in VSCode on a Mac, all appeared to go well until I tried to compile a sketch, then the following warning showed up on the Terminal.
The terminal shell path 'platformio' does not exist.
I found other cases when I googled the error, some suggesting installing a previous version of VSCode and others advising to delete core installations etc.
The lost residents mac os. MacPOS Solutions, by Crossman Softare was started when the Mac 128k was released in 1984. We sold the first retail version of MacPOS to the Titusville Beverage Company in 1986 and they continue to use it today with our latest version on OS X Mavericks. Downloaded the iso image and proceeded to make a Mac OS X bootable USB on windows. To create a bootable media to install Mac OS X leopard on my old macbook A1181. I used imageusb and installed. I was very happy to find this 10.5.4 version which worked perfectly. Many thanks to all.
I got VSCode up and running by just renaming the .platformio folder in the HOME directory and restarting VSCode, forcing VSCode to make a new installation of PlatformIO.
Yes, I do like it, especially the code completion function which makes coding sketches much quicker. I suppose only one thing becomes time-consuming and that is having to have separate programs for different boards.
But we will get used to it!
@pugwash You can add multiple boards to a project by adding them to your platformio.ini file for the project. I used to do it for uno and pro mini boards in testing. If I remember, don't set a default in the .ini and it will build all the boards/targets or if you just one built, put a default in. Not sure if there is an automated way to do this.

In looking, there is this thread on doing it. Seems to match mostly with what I have done.
